  1. get paid for 6 instead of 3 if you win - not actually double money just twice as much of it
  2. when are we going to realise COSTS MUST COME DOWN i don't care how - weakened teams are better than no teams riders must go part time - whatever it takes
  3. without wanting to end up in libel court there is a particular antipodean rider who has shown a very rich seam of form in both leagues and i often wonder how this happens. Having said that other sportsmen go in and out of form so....
  4. both clubs, along with a few others in pl, could do with a slight weakening of the pl to help make ends meet. Redcar would certainly benefit from regime change, it seems that dozens if not hundreds have been lost from the gate
  5. its their job to ensure they know the rules
  6. it'll be much better when its not there at all. Won't it,,,,,?
  7. i say commit to a league season with no absences except injury or internationals or else do not sign a contract. the resulting weakness of both leagues will be more than offset by the benefits of a settled league competition where team supporters get behind the same 7/8 men regularly. eventually the sport would become 2 tier with league riders and world stars - its already going that way tbh so we may as well take control and manage the situation.
  8. Cyril Crane - 1969 or 70. Remember reading it in the SStar
  9. where does this 'shortage of riders' come from?? The NL is full of people who should have been progressed to PL ages ago - if there weren't so many DU/DD riders they could move to PL. Yes it weakens the PL slightly but c'est la vie - think of the financial savings not having to pay EL riders from 3 figure crowds.
  10. Lakeside one EL rider - bloody joke - one big PL needed
  11. i said this to Brian Havelock on a Radio Tees phone in years ago and he said i was talking rubbish so there we are
  12. i seriously don't know where he gets the energy from i wonder what kind of personality he has in real life - he seems very driven i don't engage but its quite amusing to read fwiw i hate tatooes, esp facial, but he probably does appeal to the audience the sport needs - young people and what does it matter about nationality - lots of fans support a personality regardless of it - Hancock, Sayfudinov, etc
  13. if I'm ever up for murder i want Bwitcher to represent me
  14. well whatever you do don't go to the fcking cinema or listen to any fcking modern records or watch fcking telly after 9 or walk around any fcking High St cos you'll be fcking fckd
  15. my old dad caught me having gentlemans relaxation with the ss one day - for years he must have thought men in leathers did it for me - i never got chance to explain it was angus's column
  16. the most unpopular fan in German football is the guy who shouts give me a b at Borussia Munchengladbach
  17. "I take your point", " I understand where you're coming from" bloody hell Bwitcher have you found Jesus!!
  18. you are correct it did fail and thats because the top tier teams held the whip hand and most div 2 teams were f*ckd over this time it would be PL way or shut down
  19. i could be wrong but i belive the sport was very strong between 1965 - 68 after amalgamation (no top div as such - one level) this led to a revival that lasted for years with BL Div 2 and a host of British boys coming through if we levelled the remaining clubs in a single league (or divided in 2) there would be many opportunities to develop young British riders and operate an affordable league EDIT: of course - i mean 2 leagues with NL continuing more or less as is
